If you haven't heard, it’s a new year and a new decade! Maybe you’re still trying to figure out your "word" for 2020 or busy making resolutions?

There can be all sorts of feelings that arise when looking back on how last year was navigated and also the excitement of what might manifest in the year to come.

I imagine, like me, you’ve had your fair share of challenges as well as celebrated accomplishments, experiencing joy alongside some difficulties and pain. ​

Here are just 7 things to reflect on, and to replenish and build up reserves for yourself as you start the year with 2020 vision! ​

1. Set Personal Boundaries – Know your feelings and where you stand on subjects. Be kind yet direct with others. Say yes to offers that inspire you and no to the ones that do not. Do you know what an “absolute yes” and an “absolute no” feels like for you? Are your heart, body, and voice in congruence? ​

2. Recognize Your Uniqueness – In this age of social media, please don’t compare yourself to others, especially what you see on the Internet. You have a special gift to offer to the world exactly as you are. Learn what true authenticity is that brings out your light to the world and what your core essences are -- don’t betray them!

​3. Cultivate a Loving Circle of Friends – Hang out with people who accept you as you are, who you trust, and who you respect and respect you. There’s really only so much energy you can give to others, and your life will be richer for using discernment in who you choose to have around you and who you choose to be around. ​

4. Take the Time to Rest – Sleep. Meditate. Play. Breathe. What does “rest” mean to you? Take a walk in the woods, read on the porch, put a towel down at the beach, or do art. Feed your soul and your vitality.

5. Dream About the Future – Imagine what you want in life, what you’d love for your life to be like, what you want to do, who you want in it, and what goals you want to accomplish. My opinion is that visioning “pre-validates” what is possible.

6. Organize Your Life and Create Home Rituals – Clutter creates chaos. External chaos manifests as internal chaos. Keep things simple and create more space for relationships instead of stuff. Time spent looking for something is wasted time, so put personalized systems in place that serve your own needs. Celebrate all the little things. "Hygge" means cozy...Have a hygge life! ​

7. Create a Home Altar -- An altar is a sacred space set aside in the home for devotion. The word "altar" is derived, in part, from the word "adore." Altars are usually made of a flat surface and receive items placed upon them that have symbolism for the “theme”: candles,

flowers, stones, books or quotes, photos, and various other important tangible items and elements of nature. Choosing what to put on an altar is an intuitive process and connects you inside with people, things, feelings, and thoughts that are beloved.
